If this is the whole problem:
A trucking company is hired to deliver 125 lamps for $12 each. The company agrees to pay $45 for each lamp that is broken during transport. If the trucking company needs to receive a minimum payment of $1365 for the shipment to cover their expenses, find the maximum number of lamps they can afford to break during the trip.

My answer is 3 lamps.

125 lamps * 12 each = 1,500 total revenue

Minimum revenue: 1,365

1,500 - 1,365 = 135 excess from minimum revenue.

135 ÷ 45 charge of broken lamp = 3 lamps.

The company can afford to break a maximum of 3 lamps w/o falling below its minimum payment.

kherson [118]

Answer:

Ending Inventory 2,092

Explanation:

PURCHASES

DATE QUANTY PRICE SUBTOTAL

1 186 $6.935484 $1,290.00

10 248 $7.78226 $1,930.00

15 248 $8.38710 $2,080.00

28 186 $8.81720 $1,640.00

Inventory on hand 260

Using FIFO we have to pick from the bottom of the table until reach 240 unit.

last line: June 28th 186 units total cost 1640

240 - 186 = 54 units

we need 54 more units so we go to next purchase

June 15th 54 units at 8.3810 = 542.034 = 542

Now we add to get total ending ivnentory

186 units 1640

54 units 452

Ending Inventory 2,092

Edison Corporation's variable manufacturing overhead rate is $5.00 per direct labor-hour. Total budgeted fixed overhead is $25,0

Mila [183]

Answer:

Manufacturing overhead for July will be $55000

Explanation:

We have given budgeted labor hour in month of July = 20000

Variable overhead rate = $5

So variable manufacturing overhead = 20000×$5 = $100000

Fixed manufacturing overhead = $25000

Now total manufacturing overhead = $100000+$25000 = $125000

Depreciation expense = $7000

So manufacturing overhead for July = $125000 - $7000 = $55000

An activity's normal time and cost are 8 and $100, respectively. its estimated crash time and cost are 6 and $160, respectively.

Sphinxa [80]

An activity's normal time and cost are = 8 and $100 respectively
estimated crash time and cost are = 6 and $160 respectively
Activity's crash cost per unit time = ?
crash cost per unit time = cost slope and,
cost slope = rise/run = (crash cost - normal cost) / (normal time - crash time)
cost slope = (160 - 100) / (8 - 6) = 60 / 2 = $30
so, crash cost per unit time is $30.
